Based on a general outlook on the year, I think this has been one of my most progressive years yet. For those curious, bored, or are here for God knows why, 2015 brought the following achievements:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Graduated with a Bachelor of Arts<\/li>\n<li>Found a job I am enjoying (shoutout #PBC)<\/li>\n<li>Successfully purchased my first car, all on my own<\/li>\n<li>Began learning to appreciate where I am<\/li>\n<li>Signed up for courses at Sheridan (Continuing &amp; Professional Education)<\/li>\n<li>Began venturing out of comfort zone one step at a time<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>2015 was also a year for festivals. I said yes to attending more, and feel this was a great decision; experiences definitely add value to one&#8217;s life. Some events worth noting:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/index.php\/2015\/06\/30\/mumford-sons-june-15th\/\">Mumford &amp; Sons @ Niagara-on-the-Lake<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/index.php\/2015\/09\/07\/oddball-comedy-curiosity-festival\/\">Oddball Festival<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Elmira Maple Syrup Festival &#8212;&#8212;- because maple syrup in a small town = a good time.<\/li>\n<li>T.O Beer Fest<\/li>\n<li>Just for Laughs @ Massey Hall<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/index.php\/2015\/07\/14\/5k-foam-fest-review\/\">5K Foam Fest<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Andddd of course having experienced Phil&#8217;s [and it&#8217;s filthiness] after four years of avoidance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I also have to touch upon the books of 2015. Oh reading, you are simply the best thing in life. Although not nearly enough books I desired to finish, I will accept 18. (more like 17.5, but let&#8217;s go with 18). Favourite reads were <em>Modern Romance <\/em>by Aziz Ansari, <em>The Girl on the Train<\/em> and of course my pal Dean Koontz (finished many Odd Thomas books). <em>Dirty Wars<\/em> was by far the biggest task but most rewarding read.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/index.php\/category\/reading\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-attachment-id=\"718\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/index.php\/2015\/12\/31\/2015-reflection\/booksread2015\/\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/BooksRead2015.png\" data-orig-size=\"497,565\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"BooksRead2015\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/BooksRead2015-264x300.png\" data-large-file=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/BooksRead2015.png\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-718 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/BooksRead2015.png\" alt=\"BooksRead2015\" width=\"497\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/BooksRead2015.png 497w, http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/BooksRead2015-264x300.png 264w, http:\/\/vchiasson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/BooksRead2015-220x250.png 220w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 497px) 100vw, 497px\" \/><\/a>I&#8217;m hoping 2016 follows a similar path.
